We need to check what's the correct setting for LDO1 voltage, in PMU.
2.8 sounds fishy.

ACK.
For suspend I suspect a reverse feed thru SPI_MOSI1 and/or SPI_CLK1 lines
which might be at high (1) level even though LDO1 is powered down. If that's
the case then it needs a fix urgently. Some of he kernel guys need to check
that.
Another more unlikely scenario is suspend reprograms LDO1 out voltage to 2V4.
Even more unlikely seems you overload the powerrail (>50mA) during suspend
only.

That seems to be another indicator for high source-impedance reverse feed thru
SPI_MOSI/CLK

If only I could tell for sure.. ;-D

correct

this.
I'm not completely convinced about that. Alas we have no generic application
notes for GTA02-hw, so you can only guess what's the supposed way to manage
things. My guess however would be to switch LDO1 down directly via
PMU-register by writing over I2C. The purpose of PWNEN is a little bit cloudy
to me.

This gives less than 1mA. This gives enough room for power output, so either

hmm, doesn't make a good story with the whole bunch of observed strange
behaviour
